Interested in sake but don’t know where to start?
Sake is incredibly diverse and goes far beyond just the hot shooters most people experience at their favorite sushi restaurant. Sake can be clean and crisp, fresh and bright, fruity and complex, or rich and umami-heavy. You’ll taste through these types, learn why they taste that way, and leave equipped with the knowledge to pick out your preferences when ordering sake in the future.
You’ll get a guided tasting from a certified sake sommelier of various sakes that will open your eyes to the wide spectrum of sake available. You’ll taste 4 samples of sake and receive a Sake 101 pamphlet to take home.
